Title: Machine for producing pile fabrics
IPC: D05C15/36
Filed: 1961-01-04
Abstract: 916,418. Sewing-machines. CABIN CRAFTS Inc. Jan. 4, 1961 [Jan. 7, 1960], No. 359/61. Addition to 889,973. Class 112. The Specification describes modifications to the tufting machine described in the parent Specification, wherein needles N are pivotally mounted in a reciprocating needle bar 12 and may be selectively deflected from a vertical position wherein they co-operate with a looper 39<1> to form uncut loops to a position where they co-operate with a looper 49 to form cut loops in accordance with a desired pattern. The needle deflecting means described in this Specification include tilt levers 70 which are cut back at their working face to accelerate the return of the needle to its untilted position. The deflecting means are further mounted on an assembly 119 which oscillates first towards the needle to engage and tilt it earlier than would otherwise occur, and then, as the needle rises, facilitates the return of the needle to the vertical position. The needles are mounted in holders 60 pivoted in the needle bar and spring-biased to a position wherein the needle engages the looper 39<1>. Tilting levers 70, one for each holder, are pivoted to the assembly 119 which is attached to a shaft 118 journalled in the machine frame and oscillated from the main shaft of the machine. Pneumatic cylinders 76 on the assembly 119 may be operated by solenoid valves energized by a pattern drum to rotate the levers, so that the arm 71 strikes the roller 165 on the holder 60 as the needle bar descends, deflecting the holder and needle so that the latter co-operates with the looper 49 to form cut loops. After the looper 49 has engaged the loop and after the needle has begun to ascend the shaft 118 rocks in a clockwise direction to disengage 70 from the holder and return the needle to its vertical position. While the looper 49 oscillates in one plane as the needle reciprocates, the looper 39<1> is given a sideways motion in addition to its swing- ing movement in its own plane, to avoid interference between the loopers. This is achieved by giving an axial reciprocation to the rockshaft to which the looper 39<1> is attached.

Filed: 1958-01-06
Abstract: A process for the production of a substantially anhydrous lubricating composition comprising a mixture of metal salts of acetic acid and a C7 to C10 monocarboxylic acid, and lubricating oil, consists in heating the mixture to 250-350 DEG  F., maintaining the proportion by weight of the said metal salts in the range of 20-50%, homogenizing in the range 80-150 DEG  F. with the rate of shear in the range 100,000 to 500,000 reciprocal seconds, diluting with further amounts of lubricating oil, thus giving a concentration of 4-10 wt. per cent of metal salts and homogenizing in the range 80-150 DEG  F., with the rate of shear in the range 100,000 to 750,000 reciprocal seconds, to give a fluid product of viscosity 80-200 S.S.U. at 210 DEG  F. and said to be of improved stability.  The lubricating oil has an initial viscosity in the range 55-100 S.S.U. at 210 DEG  F. and a V.I. of 40-100; the molecular ratio of acetic to C7-C12 acid is in the range of 10 : 1 to 25 : 1.  It is preferred to form the said mixture of salts in the lubricating oil; the preferred metal is calcium, and it is preferred to homogenize the product containing 20-50 wt. per cent of said salts in at least two stages with intermediate storage between stages.  Specific examples use a commercially available mixture of 28% caprylic, 56% capric and 16% lauric acid as the source of C7 to C10 acid, hydrated lime as a source of calcium and 0.6% (based on the composition prior to dilution) of phenyl a -naphthylamine.  The lubricating oils of the examples are:- a hydrofined coastal distillate or acid-treated or hydrofined oils derived from naphthenic coastal crude; other oils used may be synthetic, e.g. of the hydrocarbon, hydrocarbon polymer, ester (such as di-2-ethylhexyl sebacate or di-C8- or -C10-oxo azelates), complex ester (e.g. of glycols, dicarboxylic acids and alcohols or monocarboxylic acids), formal, mercaptal, polyalkene oxide, or silicone types. The compositions of this invention are said to be useful for lubricating marine diesel engines.
